Innovative Fishing Tackle The "Reel Crankie" Line Winding Tool
The Reel Crankie is a portable line retrieval tool designed to help anglers quickly bring back bait and drop weights from deep water without manually cranking the reel. Built from aircraft-quality 6061 billet aluminum with corrosion-resistant 303 stainless steel internal hardware, it is made for dependable saltwater and freshwater use.
The tool attaches directly to the existing reel handle mechanism with a quick-lock gold knurled ring, then connects to a handheld 3/8" battery-powered drill through its flexible 15-degree shaft and universal-style joint. It is ideal for deep-dropping applications for swordfish, snapper, grouper, and other offshore fishing situations where fast line recovery is needed.
